    Heavy hands is literally what it is. The wrist and hand are heavy. Like having a hammer head as a fist. Same speed but with more power because of the mass.

        Heavy handed is someone like Carl Froch who doesn't really have good punching technique but can hit very hard naturally by just throwing arm punches and not using his legs to drive the power. Although, against Groves he used his whole body to deliver that KO.

            There are 3 possibilities to this observation.

            1) Heavy hands mean a fighter has heavy fists.

            2) from Elbow to fist is heavy.

            3) The whole fighters arm is heavy, from shoulder to fist.

            So which is it, what do members of NSB think is most likely the definition of Heavy hands.
            Look at my sig.

              What does heavy-handed mean? It means that the fighter punches hard. What else can it mean?

                It means that when you wake up, you find out that you've slept on your arms, they feel heavy.
